Big Sean’s career has gone into overdrive since October 2010, when he appeared on the BET Awards telecast, after earning “New Joint” status at 106 & Park two months earlier. Also in October, his most recent G.O.O.D. Music mixtape was issued, Finally Famous Vol. 3: BIG, hosted by Don Cannon. BIG, which has received over 750,000 downloads to date, spun off a slew of video clips including “What U Doin (Bullshitting)” (over 1.4 million views on VEVO), “Supa Dupa Lemonade” (over 1.9 million views on YouTube), “Too Fake” (featur­ing Chiddy Bang, over 3.3 million views on YouTube), “Ambiguous” (featuring Mike Posner), and “Memories” (released late-January on Complex.com).

In total, Big Sean’s videos have received over 12 million views at YouTube, and he has experienced an average of 100%+ spikes in fan following at MySpace, YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook since his October breakthrough. Big Sean has been featured as “Next To Blow” in Hip Hop Weekly; as a “Show and Prove” artist in XXL (where he graced the front-cover for the “Freshman class of 2010” issue); and as a “Breaking Out” feature artist in SPIN. His late-January interview with Hypebeast.com, the influential niche sneaker/lifestyle website, received over 1.2 million visits.

22-year old Sean Anderson started rapping as a 12-year old at the progressive Waldorf School in Detroit. In high school, he and a friend formed a duo, then entered and won the “Friday Night Cipher” MC contest at hip-hop radio giant Hot 102.7. The win earned them a spot to rap live on-air every Friday night for nearly a year. It was on one of those Friday nights around 2005 that Sean encountered Kanye West (back in the Late Registration era) who agreed to hear the teenager’s freestyle. It was the contact of a lifetime, which led to Sean’s signing with G.O.O.D. Music in late 2007, and his subsequent signing to Def Jam in 2008.

“I remember in the eighth grade I told myself, man I’m going to be signed to Def Jam,” says Sean. “I always put it out into the universe and I think it was written for me…I was meant to make music.”
